Story is here.
Joe the Plumber appears to be Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher.
According to Lucas County, Ohio court records, there is a Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher who has a state income tax lien of $1,182.98. According to the court record he lives on a street that is part of the Lincoln Green subdivision.
And Joe the Plumber's Father appears to be Robert Wurzelbacher right wing fanatic and contributor who is the son in law of..... you're not going to believe this. Charles Keating.
This just gets better and better.
Oh there's also a Joe the Twice Divorced Wife Beater.
And The Joe I Haven't Had a Plumbing License Since 2002.
I wonder which of these will turn out to be the guy doing all the talk shows?
I'm sure we'll know by the end of the day.
****Update: Joe the "undecided voter" appears to be a registered Republican. He voted for McCain in the primary.
*** Update 2: There's another Wurzelbacher. Doug Wurzelbacher. Doug is active in competitive dog sled racing. Guess where he lives? Wasilla, Alaska. What are the odds? I wonder if he's related to "Plumber Joe"?
These questions need answers.

An Old Boxer Who Has Been in One Too Many Fights
Story is here.
McCain's performance was not worse than that of Stockdale nor was it as horrendous as Cruz Bustamante's debate performance trying to replace Gray Davis as California Governor, but the fact remains that his fly by the seat of his pants style makes McCain perpetually ill prepared to take on sharper operators such as Obama.
He can blame his dad and wife for that since McCain has never had to pay a consequence, until now, for his laziness, impulsiveness, gutlessness and sense of entitlement because dad or his millionaire wife was there to bail his butt out or buy him what he wanted.
The McCain campaign was just a pathetic spectacle of privileged mediocrity that had never had to work for anything in his life. So he never developed the toughness and cunning that one learns from the experience of having to fight and claw for what one has.
McCain thought of himself as a downmarket aristocrat (just like Bush) and he reached the end of that rope Wednesday just as the Navy wouldn't make him an Admiral. His life is now a complete failure. I hope he is man enough to admit it and maybe he, like Jimmy Carter, can now do something constructive to save his reputation before he passes from this life. Don't count on it, though. He has always been an inertia kind of guy.

The Conservative Purge Has Begun
Story is here.
While we're on the subject of conservative purges, Virgil Goode has some 'splainin' to do to conservatives about earmarking $150,000 in federal funds for a film involving his closeted gay press secretary called Eden's Curve. That piece of cinema features drug use and bisexuality. Yes you conservatives out there, your tax dollars are funding a non-family fare film thanks to ol' Virgil:
http://airamerica.com/blog/2008/oct/15/virgil-be-goode-bad
Of course, you're going to punish him for it, right? I mean, you wouldn't be moral relativists, now would you?

The Race is Still Close -- but It's Beginning to Feel Like It Could Be a Rout for Obama
Story is here.
I have said this before, but Karl Rove knew that McCain would lose. McCain's candidacy scares the heck out of the GOP regulars for both policy and personality reasons. The base was demoralized and their staying home portended incalculable down ticket damage to the party's fortunes in Congress.
So Rove brought Palin in to energize the base and thus contain the downticket slaughter the McCain candidacy otherwise would have engendered. At this point, losing the presidency is almost an afterthought. This is about keeping people such as Mitch McConnell and Mean Jean Schmidt in office by getting the religious nuts to turn out for one of their own.
So Palin should be taken seriously for that reason and perhaps Democrats should tailor some of their ads in the weeks immediately before the election to the Palin voters by showing the disconnect between her state religious values and her and her family's actions.
But the Republicans, in their heart of hearts, will be glad to be rid of McCain and save Huckabee and Romney for 2012.

The Bailout: Why Are Bush and the Democrats Combining Against Congressional Republicans?
Story is here.
Wow, James Pinkerton playing class warfare! Who woulda thunk it! What would your man Newt think Jim? And why do you hate Newt?
Of course, this is just bs Republican spin. This plan is a much more measured response than what the Bush Administration wanted. I'm not crazy about it, but doing something is nonetheless reassuring psychologically to the markets both here and abroad.
Moreover, Pinkerton completely glosses over the fact that he collaborated with the GOP to ensure that the current crisis happened by endorsing its wreckless policies.
One can also say (admittedly somewhat unfairly) that the GOP is willing to have a depression in the name of ideology.
However, if the Democrats tell the markets to get stuffed and we have a depression as a result, the Republican leadership, consistent only in its lust for power and not in holding fast to its stated ideals, will accuse the Democrats of being asleep at the switch and thus a treasonous dereliction of duty.
It is also true that if the Democrats ignored the pleas of economists for bailouts there would be ZERO Republicans that would praise them for doing so.
You can't have it both ways, Jim. Please, we aren't that dumb.

Bailout Plan "Not Acceptable" To Congress
Story is here.
The Financial Times torched the plan on the basis that the assets may not be worth bupkis by the time the U.S. wants to withdraw its involvement, resulting in a monster size write down that will ultimately have to be compensated for by taxpayers. So you have asset deflation, few loans being made to consumers and businesses, resulting in a stagnant economy and an increased tax burden coupled with our economic future now being decided by a combination of China, Saudi Arabia, Japan and Mexico.
And I hope nobody is planning on any foreign leisure travel for the next five years, because the dollar is probably going to be worth about as much as the peso during that time---if we are lucky.
Bush, Cheney and their congressional enablers (Mitch McConnell, Tom Delay and Bill Frist, I'm looking your way!) are guilty of a particularly insidious form of treason. They should all die in jail for this.

McCain Ad: Obama Has Been MIA On The Economy
Story is here.
No wonder you are a Palin voter. You want simpleminded cheerleading rather than reasoned debate on the important issues facing our nation. That is just vapid and doesn't say much for you.
And the surge isn't working. You are deluded. The Shiites and Sunni basically engaged in a big gang fight and the Shiites have now won and are killing any Sunnis who try to return to their homes in Baghdad. So there is no more fighting there because, just like how 18th Street owns the Pico-Union area in L.A. and the Crips own the area around Compton, no competing gang can go in those sectors without being cut to ribbons.
The U.S. forces there were little more than bystanders in all this and many of the got killed during what was a religious civil war in Baghdad.
Stop listening to Rush, a junior college dropout. He doesn't know jack.

Dirty Secret Of The Bailout: Thirty-Two Words That None Dare Utter
Story is here.
This is a reply to a Republican poster:
Look, the GOP had both houses of Congress from 1994 through 2006 and they are the ones who wrote the legislation (Phil Gramm, in fact, was the main guy behind it) that Clinton signed that did away with the Glass Steagall Act. Now they could have reimposed Glass-Steagall anytime at all in the ensuing decade, but they did not. McCain, in fact, who confessed that he didn't understand the testimony he witnessed from the two entities while chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee, today STILL says that he believed that the Republican deregulation was good for the economy and wanted to extend it to the health care issue.
Blaming this on the Democrats is nonsensical, especially when the McCain campaign has 26 employees who were lobbyists or employees of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, including his campaign manager, Rick Davis.
So stop with the smoke and mirrors on who was responsible for this. The GOP had control and began rolling this ball down the hill before it crashed into something. THOSE are the facts.

"The whole thing seems almost like a carefully timed ex plosive set to go off for maximum damage to the American economy. I mean can these people be so stupid that they didn't see this coming?"
You hit on a good point. The Republicans have done more damage to this country than the Germans, the Soviets, the North Koreans and the Japanese and are thus the the most insidious collection of traitors in U.S. history.
Unfortunately, too many people are too stupid or too blindered to want to see that the underpinnings of our country have been gnawed away by a bunch of economic termites and now the house is yawing as it begins to collapse.

Sarah Palin: McCain's Vice President (INFO, PHOTOS)
Actually, the driving forces for the Bridge to Nowhere were Alaska rep Don Young and senator Ted Stevens and Democratic senator Patty Murray (who remains proud of it because she got a quid pro quo for some pork for Washington state out of it).
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/politics/2003450786_murray28.html
In addition, the Republican leadership opposed Oklahoma senator Tom Coburn's plan to take money out of the Bridge to Nowhere project:
"In opposing Senator Coburn"s amendment to defund the bridge, one prominent Senator told a closed-door meeting of conservatives that the plan was simply impractical. Many of the earmarks, he claimed, are counted towards a state"s equity bonus and thus are part of the state-by-state allocation formula. Defunding the bridge, he said, would direct at most $75 million to Louisiana, with the remaining $148 million returning to Alaska as money the state could use at its discretion for road projects." http://www.heritage.org/Research/Budget/wm889.cfm
Palin initially was for the Bridge to Nowhere:
http://blogs.tnr.com/tnr/blogs/the_plank/archive/2008/08/29/did-palin-really-fight-the-bridge-to-nowhere.aspx
But when it became a hot potato, she capitulated and vetoed it.

Bill Clinton Democratic Convention Speech: Text
Story is here.
This is a reply to an idiotic post by some Republican troll:
Bush ignored the threat from Al Qaeda and the result was 9/11. Then he sent us to war in Iraq, taking his eye off the ball in Afghanistan and, in fact, made that country's war a predicate for disgruntled Arabs to become terrorists.
Bush kowtowed to the Chinese communists by attending the opening ceremony of the Beijing games because his daddy's Carlyle Group has interests there.
Then Clinton was saddled with an antidiluvian Republican Congress that wouldn't let him move on the global warming and AIDS questions. Moreover, not only was global warming not nearly on the radar like it is now as an issue, but Republican figures such as Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson regarded Aids as God's punishment for homosexuals, putting them GOP in a position of rooting for a horrible disease. That is the GOP in a nutshell.
And just for a bonus, Bush regards the fascist Russian leader Vladimir Putin as a "good man." Which just goes to show you the level of judgement he had. Heckuva job there, Boy George.

Leaked McCain Memo: Paint Obama As A "Job Killing Machine"
Story is here.
Hey, if anyone knows how to kill jobs, it's Republicans. What party affiliation do all those CEO's who lay off thousands of workers at a time claim? Yep, it's the yellow elephant label.
And let us not forget what they said about the Clinton Deficit Reduction Package: "It will lead to the mother of all recessions," said then Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich. But all it resulted in was budget surpluses and we had the greatest economic expansion in American history during Bill's administration. Where I lived at the time, unemployment was down to 2%.
Meanwhile, Hoover ignited a depression, we had stagflation under Nixon and Ford, we had a recession under Bush the Elder and now we have one under junior. Republican administrations are Auschwitz for the working man.

Schwarzenegger Sinks to New Low
Story is here.
Republicans and deficits go together like wet and water. The first deficits in California in my lifetime (and I was born in the 1950's) were under Pete Wilson, who jacked up state university tuition fees as much as he could, essentially putting the burden for his fiscal mismanagement of the state budge on the backs of college students.
The "caveman caucus," that is, Republican Assembly and Senate members from Orange County, see Schwarzenegger as a liberal and he has zero fiscal credibility with them.
For the above reason alone, voters in California need to realize Arnold is little more than a glorified placeholder and should be tossed out.

LA Times: Hollywood Thinks McCain's Britney, Hilton Ad "Smacked Of Desperation
Story is here.
This was a reply to a post by jdcccc, who wrote:
"If Hollywood is upset it"s a bulls eye."
My answer:
Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, the late NRA mouthpiece Charlton Heston, Ron Silver, Elizabeth Hasselbeck, Gopher from The Love Boat as well as the CEOs of Disney, Viacom (which owns CBS and MTV), GE (which owns NBC), and Sirius-SM satellite radio are all Republicans. Two of those have even held political office. And let's not forget that Ronald Reagan's acting and political careers were both largely thanks to his relationship with MCA-Universal. Moreover, Britney was invited to appear at a GOP convention in NYC a few years ago and Paris Hilton's family are big GOP contributors (most recently to Mitt Romney and the party's senatorial campaign).
So Hollywood isn't just a hotbed of Democrats. And both Spears and Hilton are Republicans. In addition, Spears is a native of Louisiana, which McCain is expected to win handily.
